Tomato polygalacturonase (PG) was extracted from ripe tomatoes and purified by cation exchange and gel filtration chromatography. Cation exchange chromatography yielded two peaks with PG activity: the first peak was identified as PG2 (the heat labile form) and the second one as PG1 (the heat stable form). Both PG2 and PG1 presented a molar mass of 42 kDa when analyzed by SDS-PAGE and an isoelectric point >9.3. Thermal inactivation of purified tomato PG2, at pH 4.4, in the temperature range from 53 to 63 degrees C, followed first-order kinetics. Combined pressure-temperature inactivation of tomato PG2 was studied at 5-55 degrees C/100-600MPa. Under all pressure-temperature conditions, PG2 inactivation followed first-order kinetics. Purified tomato PG1, although more thermostable than PG2, showed a pressure stability very similar to that of PG2. These results indicate that high-pressure processing is an efficient alternative to inactivate tomato PG without the need for applying high temperatures.
番茄多聚半乳糖醛酸酶(PG)从成熟番茄中提取,并通过阳离子交换和凝胶过滤色谱法进行纯化。阳离子交换色谱产生了两个具有PG活性的峰:第一个峰被鉴定为PG2(热不稳定形式),第二个峰为PG1(热稳定形式)。通过SDS-PAGE分析时,PG2和PG1的摩尔质量均为42 kDa,等电点>9.3。在pH 4.4条件下,纯化的番茄PG2在53至63摄氏度温度范围内的热失活遵循一级动力学。研究了番茄PG2在5-55摄氏度/100-600MPa条件下的压力-温度联合失活情况。在所有压力-温度条件下,PG2失活均遵循一级动力学。纯化的番茄PG1虽然比PG2更耐热,但显示出与PG2非常相似的压力稳定性。这些结果表明,高压处理是一种有效的替代方法,无需高温即可使番茄PG失活。
